Here is a list of steps for upgrading my Cacti virtual appliance in place retaining all data. This will only work on the Centos7_Cacti-v1.1.6 or greater. This assumes you are still using the original Cacti user, passwords, and paths.

If there are any questions, please use GitHub Issues, and I can assist and update as needed.

I have a first working version of an automated update routine for the cacti-template you can get here. You can get the instructions on how to run it here…
